Recenzii

“When you call a movement that nobody has ever recognized as such ‘without doubt the genre’s most crucial development over the final quarter of the twentieth century,’ you’re really throwing down the gauntlet. I loved reading this book and learned a lot from it. I also found myself challenging it and arguing with it, which you might expect with a provocative work of criticism.” —Don McLeese, author, Dwight Yoakam: A Thousand Miles from Nowhere
"In this insightful book, Geoffrey Himes recounts how a broad, yet tightly interconnected collection of creative Baby Boomers infused country music with a new sensibility and sound––respectful of the music’s older roots, but equally influenced by the modern rock-and-roll and folk songs they grew up listening to. He even provides a name for their movement: In-Law Country. With fascinating biographical stories and perceptive analysis of their melodies and lyrics, artists like Emmylou Harris, Rosanne Cash, Rodney Crowell, Ricky Skaggs, Guy Clark and others are shown to be innovative pioneers who reinvigorated country music for a new generation." --Dayton Duncan, Writer/Producer of Ken Burns’s Country Music
